I already sent you a gushing, thrilled email. But I want it out in public too. I love this to an extent that is probably worrying. Everything is so right in this, I lose my breath looking at it.

Thank you again.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I also already sent you an email that poorly describing my delight. I am so happy and grateful that you love this, the words cannot express my sheer joy.

[summertea.livejournal.com]

That? Is absolutely amazing. Your best work so far. ♥

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you! That's very sweet of you to say that. :)

[tardis80.livejournal.com]

OMG!OMG! This is AMAZING. The pose, the colors...*flaily hands* I'm in awe.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, your comments always makes me happy. You're a darling! ♥

That is just astonishingly beautiful. You are so talented.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

I'm thrilled that you liked it, thank you very much! *blushing at the compliment*

This is so well done. John looks like he is in pain. How you managed to get that across without the advantage of facial expression is amazing. :)

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you, that's very nice of you to say. I think the posture tells it, which I just borrowed from the story.

[niangao.livejournal.com]

Oh wow. This is amazing! The art itself (and John's body!) is very beautiful. At the same time, the posture, John curling in on himself, conveys the incredible sense of shame present in the story.

*is in awe*

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. I'm glad that this was able to convey something that you related to the story.

[wicked-socks.livejournal.com]

ohh I really like this! The colors, the pose, the foreshortening, and the hair are all very good! :D

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

I'm glad that you liked this, thank you very much! :)

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

This is scarily great. I love how with his protruding bones and and red background, his hidden face, you de-sensualized John's nudity and made it broken, cruel.

Impressive.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I'm thrilled to hear your thoughts on this and even more thrilled that it impressed you.

[machinistm.livejournal.com]

I think I'm kinda scarily in love with this. Posture, perspective, perfect!

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I'm so glad that you liked this.

[korestemenos.livejournal.com]

Gosh, this is gorgeous.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

Oh wow.

This looks so, so real. OH JOHN.

(I kinda want to trace my finger down his spine)

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Spine is one of my very favorite parts of the human body, so I'm glad that it tempted you.

[ozsaur.livejournal.com]

Gorgeous! You've totally captured Seven Walls with this.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

I'm glad that you thought this reflected the story. Thank you!

[turtlespeaks.livejournal.com]

This is just magnificent! Amazing job!

*squee*

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! *g*

[dar-jeeling.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow. And ow. In other words: Fits the story. ;)

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I'm glad that you thought this suited the story. :D

I just clicked here from a link on my f-page, and now I can't leave. Which I guess is the effect art is supposed to have?

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I wouldn't consider something I've done as anything resembling a real art, but it's very flattering to hear it nonetheless.

[lamardeuse.livejournal.com]

Holy shit, that's stunning.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, I'm really thrilled to hear that.

[gwendolen.livejournal.com]

Oh wow. Incredible and very fitting for the story.

The supposed sensuality of Johnn's role showcased by his nudity and the bodyart, yet his own shame and adhorence of what is asked of him is conveyed by his position, the way he curls into himself and tries to hide himself.

Totally incredible.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much. I'm glad that you thought it was fitting for the story.

[khyrra.livejournal.com]

This is so beyond awesome. There aren't words to describe how perfect this is. Well done.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the awesome compliment!

[spike21.livejournal.com]

that's lovely. very erotic and wrenching.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Yay, erotic and wrenching! Thank you.

[xenachan.livejournal.com]

Woah !
That's impressive, good work ! ^^

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much. :D

[cpt-untouchable.livejournal.com]

This is ... wow. So incredibly evocative. For half a moment, I didn't know what I was looking at. My mind processed the image as a shell or a skull before John's hair registered. And then I kinda wanted to cry, because - yeah, to both. He looks so fragile.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. I'm truly thrilled to hear that this was able to elicit those responses from you.

[devildoll.livejournal.com]

This is absolutely gorgeous.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you, it makes me very happy to hear that.

[monanotlisa.livejournal.com]

Stunning.



Wow.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I'm thrilled that you liked this.

[springwoof.livejournal.com]

visually stunning, yet hurts to look at
very fitting for the story, which has gorgeous writing and often hurts to read.
well done!

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I'm glad that you thought it's fitting for the story. And reading the story is both painful and absolutely fascinating to me.

[alizarin-nyc.livejournal.com]

HOLY COW. That's amazing. AMAZING. I want a giant poster of it -- no, a mural -- on my wall.

In short, you are talented and visionary.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for your compliment, it's very nice of you to say that. :)
